Daylight-Saving
A Wonderful Boon. “1 atn glad that New Zealand w II benefit by daylight saving. It is a wonderful boon, and in England and the Continent, th pe ipie sooner would tortgo their a .turday half-h iliday than give up uaylight saving.” So Mr F S Wilding, of Christrhurch, who returmd recently from a trip to the Old Country, expressed his opinion of day-bgnt-saving. D.<y light-saving has b' en in force in Europe since the Great War, and the people tii- re avail themselves to the fullest extent of its many advantages. . 'Vuringlhe summer months,” saul Mr Wilding, "it is possible to play tennis, cricket and bowls uuiil late in the evening, and thus the business man is enabled t > obtaifi recreation during the week.” This was but one ot the advantages ot uaylight saving. It was interesting lo 1 ole that mid-week cnrkel and tennis matches were played, and this would not have been possible in the olddays. “It is wonderful to think that daylight-saving has come to pass inN'W Zealand, anti I am sure t ,al it will be appreciated greatly by ihe sporting community.” Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure, POl Cuu*n» sou Colds.' never fails. j
